Waratah (Telopea) is an Australian endemic genus of five species of large shrubs or small trees, native to the southeastern parts of Australia (New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania). The most well-known species in this genus is Telopea Speciosissima, which has bright red flowers and is the NSW state emblem. The key diagnostic feature of Proteaceae is the inflorescence, which is often very large, brightly coloured and showy, consisting of many small flowers densely packed into a compact head or spike.
The name waratah comes from the Eora Aboriginal people, the original inhabitants of the Sydney area.
